What if you've been told you need both radiation and anti-estrogen therapy after breast cancer surgery, but the evidence suggests one treatment might be enough?

Many women over 60 with early-stage, estrogen-positive breast cancer find themselves navigating a confusing treatment landscape. Different specialists may recommend different therapies without clearly explaining whether all of them are necessary.

Dr. Katie Deming draws on her 20 years as a board-certified radiation oncologist to break down decades of research that challenge the idea that more treatment is always better.

Now practicing integrative oncology, she understands the science behind standard treatment protocols and also recognizes how these decisions affect real life. Her experience inside the conventional medical system gives her the insight to question current practices while still honoring the research that supports more personalized approaches.

Dr. Katie addresses a critical issue many women face: being prescribed multiple treatments without knowing if both are needed.

She walks you through key studies like CALGB 9343 and PRIME II in simple terms. She explains what recurrence rate may be acceptable for some women, especially when compared to the long-term side effects of hormone therapy.

She also explores how radiation, while more intensive in the short term, might be a better option for those who prefer a time-limited treatment.

Listen, learn, and you understand your options so you can make choices that align with your values and quality of life.
